Product Specific Instructions

Installation
General Installation Safety
Refer installation to qualified personnel only.
Hang the tool securely, by for example using a balancer.
When using a suspension yoke, check that it is in good con-
dition and correctly fastened.
Always connect the system to an earthed outlet. Always
make sure that the mains plug is disconnected and the con-
troller is turned off before connecting or disconnecting the
tool cable.

Operation
Hold-And-Drive system precaution
CAUTION Standard HAD tool angle heads and
screw tips are usually not designed to accommodate
the reaction torque generated during the tightening
operation. If the tool is not held and restrained cor-
rectly or a reaction bar is not used and operated cor-
rectly, it may result in operator injury.
HAD angle head tools require reaction torque to be
►
managed either by operator holding and restraining
the tool correctly or for higher torque operations by
using a reaction bar.
Dual Trigger
Dual trigger (Recommended to use during
operation)
WARNING Crushing Hazard
The Dual trigger forces the user to use both hands to op-
erate the tool. If not used, the operator can accidentally
start the tool while adjusting the crowfoot, thus resulting
in a serious hand injury.
Make sure the tool cannot be started once the Dual
►
trigger has been released.
Always test the tool by first releasing the trigger of
►
the Dual trigger, then push the trigger of the tool. If
the tool starts; stop working.
General Operation Safety
• Due to entanglement risk, do not wear gloves.
• Be prepared of the reaction force which will occur
when the tool is used. Always support the tool's handle
securely in the direction opposite to the spindle rotation,
in order to reduce the effect of sudden torque reaction
during final tightening and initial loosening.
• Never hold the drive, socket or drive extension.
• Operators and maintenance personnel must be physi-
cally able to handle the bulk, weight and power of the
tool.
• If possible, use a suspension arm to absorb the reac-
tion torque. If that is not possible, side handles are
recommended for straight-case and pistol-grip tools;
reaction bars are recommended for angle nutrun-
ners. It is recommended to use a means to absorb the re-
action torque above 4 Nm (3 lbf.ft) for straight-case
tools, above 10 Nm (7.5 lbf.ft) for pistol-grip tools, and
above 60 Nm (44 lbf.ft) for angle nutrunners.
• Serious injury can result from over-torqued or un-
der-torqued fasteners. Assemblies requiring a specific
torque must be checked using a torque meter. So-called
"click" torque wrenches do not check for potentially
dangerous over-torqued conditions. Over-torqued or un-
der-torqued fasteners can break, loosen or separate. Re-
leased assemblies can become projectiles.
• Use only power or impact sockets in good condition.
Do not use hand sockets.
